Case 1:13-cv-10951-DJC Document 275 Filed 12/15/16 Page 1 of 22 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS DONALD THOMAS SCHOLZ, Plaintiff and Defendant-in-Counterclaim, v. Civil Action No. 1:13-cv-10951-DJC BARRY GOUDREAU, Defendant and Plaintiff-in-Counterclaim. MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN SUPPORT OF DEFENDANT BARRY GOUDREAU’S MOTION FOR COSTS AND ATTORNEY’S FEES PURSUANT TO 15 U.S.C. § 1117(a) Pursuant to the Court’s order (D. 269), defendant BARRY GOUDREAU (“Goudreau”) hereby submits his memorandum of law in support of the above-referenced motion as prevailing party on the Lanham Act claims of plaintiff DONALD THOMAS SCHOLZ (“Scholz”). I. INTRODUCTION This case was never about violation of the Lanham Act. To say otherwise constitutes a failure in honesty to the Court. Putting it bluntly, Scholz’s Lanham Act claims were a sham. The Court disposed of most of those bogus claims on summary judgment, finding a complete lack of evidence. As for the remaining “indirect” infringement claims, ginned up in an amended pleading, there was never any consumer confusion, or even the remotest likelihood of such, in referring to Goudreau’s past participation (whether as “former” or “original” member) in the band BOSTON. There was never any harm to Scholz or his trademarks in doing so. The parties’ goods and services weren’t in competition, and were never likely to be. Lanham Act cases are difficult and complex. That Act has a fee-shifting provision for “exceptional” cases. The Supreme Court has recently provided guidance to the lower courts on how and when that provision should apply. -

It was mid-February 1995 on my first day in Los Angeles, having arrived on a transatlantic flight the previous night from London Heathrow. A half-hour drive from the airport along the 405 South and then up to Hollywood via a stop- off at Venice ensured that I was exhausted by the time I booked into the Holiday Inn on Hollywood and Highland, just a short walk from the boulevard. Jet lag rendered sleep impossible and I was up, showered and dressed at six the next morning, before heading up to the top-floor restaurant for breakfast, where I occupied a table by the window. The view comprised an endless expanse of gleaming white architecture, awesome to behold in a part of the world synonymous with movies, fame, celebrity culture, extreme wealth and ostentation, not to mention every kind of weird and wacked-out subculture you could think of. -
